If you are unable to return the hired car to the rental company, the insurance plan will cover the cost up to $500.

Hijacking and mugging. If you’re a victim of hijacking or mugging during your travels, you’ll be covered for the time you spend as a detainee and/or in hospital.

St George Travel Insurance Pre-existing medical conditions

If you or anyone insured on your travel plan suffers from a pre-existing medical or dental condition, that condition is not automatically covered by St George travel insurance. The same is true for any complications arising from this pre-existing medical condition.

Some conditions like asthma, epilepsy and pregnancy up to 24 weeks are automatically covered, but if your illness or condition is not covered, you’ll have to pay an additional premium to have it included in the insurance contract.

Making St George travel insurance claims

Get in touch quickly. In the event of an accident or lost or stolen property, getting in touch with your insurance agent will ensure prompt assistance – as long as your information is correct and up to date. The local and international hotlines are operational 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Provide all relevant documentation. The documents required differ according to the nature of your claim. You’ll most likely be asked to submit:Police reportsMedical reports and letters from doctorsOriginal receiptsEvidence of ownership like photographs and proof of purchase

Be honest and cooperative. The more truthful and complete the information you provide, the speedier the claims process. False or incomplete statements will lead to unnecessary delays and the cancellation of your policy in the case of a fraudulent claim.

Important information about this website

finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We compare from a wide set of major banks, insurers and product issuers.

finder.com.au has access to track details from the product issuers listed on our sites. Although we provide information on the products offered by a wide range of issuers, we don't cover every available product. You should consider whether the products featured on our site are appropriate for your needs and seek independent advice if you have any questions.

Products marked as 'Promoted' or "Advertisement" are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options and find the best option for you.

The identification of a group of products, as 'Top' or 'Best' is a reflection of user preferences based on current website data. On a regular basis, analytics drive the creation of a list of popular products. Where these products are grouped, they appear in no particular order.

Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment.

We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.

Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labelling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.

Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
